Patent EP-0421812-A1 (EP)
Inventor: YARD JOHN
IPC: G01F1/84
Filed: 1990-10-05
Abstract: A mass flowmeter of the Coriolis-type in which fluid to be metered is conducted through a flow tube which is coiled to define a helix having a pair of identical measuring loops forming a double loop, on either side of which is an isolation loop. The fluid is admitted into the input of one isolation loop and is discharged from the output of the other isolation loop. The helix is concentric with a support structure having at one end a flow inlet to which the isolation loop input is affixed, and at the other end a flow outlet to which the isolation loop output is attached. A rigid bar parallel to the axis of the helix is joined to the junction of the measuring loops as well as to the respective junctions of each measuring loop and its associated isolation loop whereby the isolation loops then function as decoupling springs to effectively isolate the bar and the double measuring loop from external forces. The measuring loops act as the tines of a tuning fork and are excited to vibrate in phase opposition. The fluid passing through the double loop is subjected to Coriolis forces, thereby causing the vibrating loops to torsionally oscillate in accordance with the mass flow of the fluid. Sensors mounted on the oscillating loops yield signals having a difference in magnitude and phase that is a function of the torsional oscillations. These signals are applied to a differential amplifier whose output is proportional to the mass flow of the fluid.

Abstract: The radar system consists of a transmitter (3, 4, 5) for transmitting non-equidistant coherent pulses forming a periodic pattern and distinguished from each other by a phase modulation obeying different quasi-orthogonal laws. The mean spacing between pulses is of the same order of magnitude as the minimum duration of the flashes. The receiving system consists of a single receiver (7) and a device (8) for the coherent elimination of clutter and echoes from the bodies of the targets. These are followed by N pulse compression channels (9.1 to 9.N) for processing the pulses by correlation with particular phase modulation laws. The outputs from the processing channels are sent to a device (11) for removing secondary peaks due to partial ambiguities. …<??>Application to surveillance radar systems for detecting helicopters. …<IMAGE>…

Title: Light-energized electronics energy management system.
Inventor: NIELSEN WYN Y
IPC: G06F3/048
Filed: 1989-10-04
Abstract: An irrigation controller is powered for all normal operations by light incident upon an 18 square inch photovoltaic module. Electrical power from the photovoltaic module is stored in high performance "super" capacitors. A transportable battery power source is connected to the controller to power its communication, such as for manual exercise and/or the loading of irrigation control programs. The external battery power source leaves the capacitor power storage recharged at the conclusion of each communication episode. The irrigation controller electronics, save for a real time clock that is updated, are not provided with a timing signal, and thereby consume almost no energy, save for brief millisecond sporadic time intervals of scheduled irrigation control. Capacitor power storage is approximately 6.5 mWH. Worse case photovoltaic energy production is 7.6 mWH daily. The sporadically operative irrigation controller uses less than 6.4 mWH per day, with remaining energy expended on up to 128 ultra-low-power valve actuations per day.

Abstract: In the operation of a pressurised atomising nozzle, the liquid fuel atomising cone from the nozzle (4) is mixed with a gaseous medium (7) in front of a first screen (3) which is mounted downstream of the nozzle (4) in the flow-off direction. In this connection, this atomising cone is struck radially and/or quasi-radially by the gaseous medium (7). In this connection, the original atomising angle from the nozzle, which amounts to around 40 DEG , is reduced to less than half. To this end, it is sufficient if the gaseous medium (7) has a pressure of 20 mbar. The new atomising angle is established with the first screen (3), there being provided in the flow-off direction according to requirements a second screen (2) which functions according to the same principle as the first, i.e. in the case of the second screen also, the mixture already produced is struck radially and/or quasi radially by the remaining proportion of the gaseous medium which was not used at the first screen (3). By changing the distances (D) between nozzle (4) and front wall of the first screen (3) and between rear wall of the first screen (3) and front wall of the second screen (2), the atomising cone of the mixture is varied between full cone and hollow cone. In the case of two screens (3, 2), their throughflow is to be kept roughly the same.

Abstract: The invention relates to an electrical conduit and contact arrangement in dental handpieces, containing, for the transfer of electrical energy from a supply point to a contact point of a consumer, an elongate conduit section at whose end directed towards the supply point there is at least one connection element and at whose end directed towards the contact point there is at least one contact element for diverting the energy to the consumer. In order to make the energy transfer in dental handpieces easier to assemble and safer to operate, it is proposed that the conduit section (7a, 8a, 9b), the connection element (7b, 8b, 9b) and the contact element (7c, 8c, 9c, 7d) should form an integral component (7, 8, 9) which is inherently rigid and thus assumes a carrier function. The component (7, 8, 9) can have several contact elements (7c, 7d, 7f) which branch off from the conduit section (7a, 8a, 9c) and which are preferably designed as contact rings. <IMAGE>
